Jill,

Yes, it comes ready made for 1/8 NPT fittings.

No wire needed.

When you order, double check for the fitting size.

The RMA series has 1/8 NPT fittings, yours should be the same.

These flowmeters are not consumer items, they are laboratory items

designed for use by scientists, engineers, and OEM manufacturers.

You will need 1/8 NPT/ 1/4 " or 1/8 " barbed fitting depending on your

tubing id.

Are you sure Saul?

I think the flowmeters come with female NPT threads. I am pretty sure

you have to screw in your own NPT/Barbed hose fittings.

I think you're right Dennis, anyway they told me to get two of those

fitting things so I did, they were only around $2 each.

Dear Dennis,

If you order VFA-SS-21 they come with the male fittings screwed into

the female receptacles.

If you order VFA-21, they just come with the female receptacles.

Best of health!
